That’s pretty cool, I’m surprised the crybabies will not complain. Oh my God what’s going on? Is the mall gonna be open on a Sunday. What about BERGEN blue laws, that bullshit law, oh but it’s OK to have a run. That store should be open on a Sunday People pay big rent and they’re losing a lot of business on a Sunday to other counties. They’re crying about the mall in the Meadowlands being open on a Sunday, it’s staying open guess what it’s on state property. The state makes the rules not Bergen County nitwits, times have changed Pretty soon. Paramus will be like New York City remember 30 years ago. You couldn’t even find a gas station open late now how many are open 24 hours oh yeah say bye-bye to Bergen blue law. You don’t like it move out of Bergen County. That’s all go by a box of tissues.
Here’s another thought…… if you don’t like the blue laws , move out of Bergen County. 😊
Exactly, people need to get with the times. I love it how they are trying to tell us when to go shopping
I know. It’s oppressive. It’s like the middle east. How dare they tell us strong independent women when we can or can’t shop?!
No it’s not like the Middle East. You can’t equate not having stores open on Sunday for your shopping pleasure to the real oppression suffered by many women in the Middle East and elsewhere. It’s not the same. Again, you can shop outside of Bergen County on Sundays.
You are free to shop on Sunday. Just not in Bergen County.
Plenty of options still out there. The malls are still suffering.
You people who put thumbs down would be saying something different if you are an owner of a business and paying big rent and you’re losing big business on a Sunday. Then you go to work on a Monday and Tuesday Wednesday in the store is dead, not making any money You’ll think again.
If you sign the lease you comply with the laws of the municipality.
Then open somewhere else. You knew when you opened your store.
We should have Peewee organize a 10K in the ginormous garage !
